SCANDAL will be performing at the "HUSH!! full music 沙灘音樂會" festival in Macau on May 1st.

沙灘音樂會 = beach concert

They will be playing on the "Hot Wave" stage from 20:10-21:40

This is a free concert run by the Macau government.

The news first came out of HUSH's facebook page.

When I meet Rina recently that was one of the questions I asked about, I said "looking forward to hearing more information about the Macau live and she replied "yeah the Macau live, I'm looking forward to it."

It seems like the festival announced it too early. After they first posted five days ago that SCANDAL would be coming and to "not miss out on your chance to meet them" there, they edited out that sentence and also removed their picture from the post, and then they deleted the post altogether.

Screenshot I took of the post and its edits before it was deleted:

Edit: The band just officially announced it:

We’re headlining at one of the most popular music festivals in Macau "HUSH!! Full Music 2019" at Hac Sa Beach on May 1st!

SCANDAL to perform as a headliner at the Macau music festival 『HUSH!! Full Music 2019』

SCANDAL will be performing as a key headliner at the music festival 『HUSH!! Full Music 2019』 to be held at Macau's Hac Sa Beach.

SCANDAL has been active overseas since 2015 when they held 『SCANDAL WORLD TOUR 2015「HELLO WORLD」』, their first solo world tour that drew out a combined total of 80,000 people and went around to 10 cities in eight countries including France, the United Kingdom, Singapore, Hong Kong, and the US. In 2016 they held 『SCANDAL TOUR 2016 "YELLOW" IN EUROPE』, their first solo European tour that consisted of 10 performances. Last year they held tours in Asia and North America that consisted of six performances apiece.

Releasing their first single 「Masterpiece / Mabataki」 on their private label "her" on 3/27, they posted both songs' music videos on YouTube and garned many comments from fans all over the world, once again proving their popularity abroad. Their headlining appearance at 『HUSH!! Full Music 2019』 is no doubt linked to their success overseas.

OK, this is kinda funny. The English version of the Hush website has this info about SCANDAL if you click on the band name:

"SCANDAL is an all-female Japanese rock band from Osaka formed in 2006. In 2010, the band has performed the theme songs for several animation series, such as “Bleach” and “Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood”. With numerous overseas performances and well-known anime theme songs, Scandal has built a considerable international fan base. In 2012, SCANDAL held their first concert in Nippon Budokan. In 2015, SCANDAL toured in United States, Mexico, Japan, France, Germany, Singapore and Hong Kong, receiving great response around the world. Don’t miss the chance to meet them in HUSH!"

But if you take the last little bit in the original Chinese then run it through Google Translate, it is just a little bit different:

( 澳門歌迷首次可在HUSH!現場與偶像近距離接觸，並欣賞到她們最新專輯的歌曲。) "For the first time, Macau fans can get close to idols at HUSH! and enjoy the songs of their latest albums."

Did you see that? They called them "idols" Hee Hee! While I may idolize this band, they are rock'n'roll stars, not idols. They write, produce, arrange, play, sing, perform... They do it all. When I got to see them, they rocked my socks off! (Literally, I had to pull my socks back up after the show.)

But I guess if you need to think of SCANDAL as idols to get you to go see them, then by all means, go and be surprised.

This is awesome that they already have an international show! I am so-o-o pumped for what the future holds.
